Humans are weird, and they don't behave how you might expect. But once you've lived for a while and seen it first hand many times, it starts to make sense in a weird way.

I'm reporting my own experience from having lived for quite a long time, hired quite a lot of people and seen others doing it.

Not disputing that people can make odd decisions; just that I have never witnessed what the OP said.

Both can be right. Depends on the organization culture.
